I have 05. Would like to get the following options that are available on the 06 model:

1) Limited Slip
2) Track Package

Is it easy or better to trade

?

Thanks so much

Easier to trade in, but more costly.

I'm pretty sure the "Track Pack" is an option only available on the Exige.

You can get the track pack on the Elise.

What part is desired? You can get the suspension separately. At least one person has offered theirs up on E-Talk.

At this point, you might hold out for a used one, rather than eat the depreciation on 2 cars.

I would probably opt for aftermarket parts and address both of the needs you list with your current car.....

The racing rules only allowed the sports package (which I have) and Limited slip. Easy to add limited slip?

Might as well go ahead and upgrade the clutch to an ACT while you have the trans apart

I have never installed an LSD so can't comment on skill level needed....
